I'm also a complete and utter sucker for this trailer as it artfully uses one of my favorite bands, Arcade Fire.
I'm psyched. I truly am. I hope it's an epic fantastical masterpiece from start to finish... And I hope it's not disappointing (there is that concern of course).

I know! Very exciting.
Yeah, Henson Studios is actually responsible for the wild things, and their mastery is evident.
I have to say I'm optimistic for it indeed being epic, fantastical, and a masterpiece, because the one book I've read by co-writer Dave Eggers (a memoir called
A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius) is all of those things. He's a very, very gifted writer, and working alongside Jonze and Maurice Sendak himself, I would be really surprised if it turns out to be a disappointment.
And yeah, the song works great in that trailer, too.
But of course, you never know...
